DRIE-D at Europort
Visit us at booth 1502 in Hall 1
As good as DRIE-D slide bearings and friction material are; they’re not our best asset. At Europort DRIE-D will present their best asset: the expertise and experience to design and produce a bearing or friction solution that exceeds your expectations.
Visit our booth to meet our engineers who can tell you more about our recent projects. For example for Spartacus, the groundbreaking most powerful cutter suction dredger developed by DEME and Royal IHC. This project required pushing the boundaries of current technology. DRIE-D developed and supplied various innovative bearing solutions to enable this cutting edge technology.
Radically new designs, proven engineering
Specialised in bearing- and friction technology, DRIE-D designs and produces innovative products for a wide variety of markets setting new standards in mechanical solutions for everything that needs to rotate or slide (or a combination of both).
With the use of our patented D-glide®, our composite bearings allow higher loads than virtually all other plain bearings and have less friction and less wear. And with our experience in challenging projects, we create progressive bearing designs
As a competent player in friction materials, we provide reliable and robust friction solutions for different applications.
DRIE-D’s unique D-glide® bearing material and certified friction materials allow the products to operate in demanding marine circumstances, sustainable reliable and often without lubrication or maintenance.
Applications
At DRIE-D we like setting new standards for heavy loads or harsh operation, environmental safe and maintenance friendly. Highly specialized in mechanical motion, we provide a smooth solution for your rough challenge! Our engineers are experienced and specialized to design solutions in these fields.

Our projects
Heave Chief
Challenge: Ensuring minimal friction during continuous motion under high loads for a balanced heave compensation system.
Hexapod
Challenge: Design a lightweight solution for the limited space that is exceptional adaptable to varying angles and loads.
Hardt Hyperloop
Challenge: Design supports that can handle the variability in material properties, especially in relation to ambient temperature fluctuations.
Afsluitdijk
Challenge: Renew and increase the amount sluice holes and scuppers and create more pump channels in the Afsluitdijk.
